CUPID GOT IN WORK
SUNDAY AFTERNOON
Cupid got busy with fall marriages
yesterday afternoon.
Rev. J. A. Boyd married J. B. Dick
and Carrie Carpenter in the big road"
down near the Elk Mill Sunday af
ternoon in the presence of a great
crowd of friejids attracted by the
novel place for the consummation of
the nuptials.
Up at the home of Rev. Boyd about
two hours later he united Bob Grant
to Carrie Pool.
The fall season seems to have just
started in cupid’s court and it is ex
pected that he will do a rushing busi
nes from now on. Judge Bogle is
the personal representative of Cupid
in this county and is ready to deliver
the papers necessary at any time the
right parties come along. The price
remains the same. Judge Bogle is
a stickler •'’or reasonableness in all
things and having recognized the cost
of living is somewhat out of propor
tion, has decided the price of mar
riage licenses shall not go up.
One of the prettiest of the early
fall weddings was that of Miss Alleen
Ramsey Kirby to Mr. Charles Dunlap
which was solemnized on Wednesday
evening at six o’clock at the First
Presbyterian church.
The Lesche club, of which Miss
Kirby was a member, had arranged
the artistic decorations. The chancel
was banked with palms and ferns and
silver candlesticks with white tapers
shed a soft light in the early evening
twilight.
Just before the wedding party en
tered the church a choice program
of nuptial music was rendered by Mr.
and Mrs. Walter Jones, accompanied
by Mrs. F. K. Sims, and at the ap
pointed time strains of the Lohen
grin wedding march announced the
approach of the wedding party.
The ushers, Mr. B. A. Tyler, of this
city and Mr. J. C. Norton, of Chat
tanooga. came first, followed by Air.
Will Denton and Prof. Lowry, of
Chattanooga, Miss Caroline Kirby
and Dr. R. H. Colmore. of Chattanoo
ga came next, then Miss Emory Kir
by and Mr. W. B. Burton, followed
by the bride with her maid of honor.
Miss Yarrington, of Chattanooga, and
the groom and his best man, Mr. F.
K. Webb.
They were met at the altar by Rev.
F. K. Sims, who performed the cere
mony.
Immediately after the ceremony
Mr. and Mrs. Kirby entertained the
bridal party, out of town guests, the
members of the Thornton Avenue club
and a few school friends of the bride
at an elegant reception. Air. and
Mrs. Kirby were assisted in receiv
ing by the bridal party in the front
parlor, the decorations being palms,
ferns and white cornationß.
The bride wearing her wedding
gown of white satin, veiled with mar
quisette trimmed with fringe and
duchess lace. Miss Yarringtorf, the
maid of honor, wore pink silk with
pearl trimmings. Misses Carolyn and
Emory Kirby’s gowns were green
marquisette over satin, pink fringe
and real lace trimmings. Airs. Kir
by’s dress was lavendar peau de
crepe with satin and mol lace.
The dining room was beautiful in
its pink and white decorations. The
bride’s table with cluny lace cover
and central decoration of an elegant
mirror upon which was a large cut
glass and silver loving cup, containing
la France roses, was a marvel of beau
ty. Pink and white mints in cut
glass dishes and shaded candles com
pleted the color scheme.
The buffet luncheon was served by
Afisses Denton, White, Morse and
Airs. Shelly AfcWilliams. Cakes and
ices were suggestive of tire happy c
casion, the former being of heart
shape, with initials of the bride and
groom.
In the library were displayed ex
pressions of love and good wishes
for the bride and groom. Tables
were laden with silver, cut glass,
china, brass, linen and beautiful em
broideries. showing exquisite taste of
her friends as well as popularity of
the bride. On the large piazza their
health and happiness was toasted in
a delicious fruit punch.
The reception hall contained the
bride’s guest book in which was reg
istered the autographs of each for
tunate guest. Amid a shower of good
wishes (and rice) Air. and Mrs. Dun
lap left on the south bound train for
their wedding tour. She wore a
Copenhagen blue bedford cord trav
eling suit with’’ hat and gloves to
match.
The bride is one of Dalton’s most
beautiful and loveable daughters and
has been the favorite of a large cir
cle of friends since early childhood.

“I think my mother ought to be
called the 'where is it’ lady,” a
quaint little boy once commented.
He was the youngest of a large
family and he had heard his mother
so often appealed to in this way by
the va'rious members of the house
hold that he had good reason for his
suggestion.
I fancy there are a great many
homes in which the “where is it
lady” might be one of the house
mother’s titles.
For I have myself observed not a
few families where the habit of ap
pealing to mother to find anything
which does not come handy is a fixed
one.
Now of course, a mother’s mind
would naturaly be •the best index of
the home and a mother is inevitably
a last resort to which to appeal when
anything simply can’t be found.
But here’s the rub.
I think she should be kept as a last
and not a first resort.
And a first resort is what she is
frequently made. It is so much easier
to say, “Where is So-and-so?” and
to throw the responsibility onto
mother’s mind, than to use your own
brains; it is so much simpler to say,
“I can’t find something or other,”
and have mother come down or up,
and help, than to go poking about by
yourself, that many of us get into the
habit of making no effort to do any
thing else.
“What have you done with that
magazine I was reading last night?”
cries father. “It’s gone and I was
right in the middle of a story.” And
mother patiently gets up and finds it
right under father’s elbow, hidden by
only a newspaper.
“Where on earth is the tie that
goes with my dress suit,” calls big
brother, and brother toils up the
stairs and finds it right in the hand
kerchief box where lie left it the last
time he went to a wedding.
“Mothey. I can’t find my pumps
anywhere. I’m sure Brdget did
something with them when she swept
today,” fulminates big sister. And
mother leaves her sewing and locates
the pumps in the closet, hidden only
bv the folds of big sister's dressing

“Where is the milk bottle? How
can I go and get the milk if you don’t
tell me where the milk bottle is?”
sputters little brother. He has see
that milk bottle on the pantry shelf
a dozen times, but, of course, mother
gets up and gets it for him.
And all this means that mother
. must bear all the body and brain fag
that hunting for things means—and
myself, I think there is nothing m.M*e
tiring than hunting for things—w ; *h
should be distributed over the shoul
ders of the whole family.
Now I believe that “I can’t find
it,” and “AVhere is it?” are habits
that all children fall into unless they
are checked.
And I think they should be checked.
Both for mother’s sake and their
own.
A child who is taught to hunt for
things until he finds them will have
more self reliance and initiative than
the child who gets into the “Where
is it?” habit.
A mother whose family does their
own hunting for things instead of
piling it all on her shoulders will have
less care to lessen her chances of be
coming a happy old grandmother.
